nigel_k Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 Transfer and pass. Vul and form of scoring would be good to know but I doubt they would affect my choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlson Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 I still always transfer (and pass), but I'm keeping an open mind about passing 1n more. On the other hand, especially at imps, the chance of getting to a game if partner superaccepts is important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 I always transfer with a 5+ major too regardless of hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kfay Posted March 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 If I transferred and partner super accepted I'd bid game, ergo I transfer. So are there any hands where you have a 5cM and you don't transfer? Just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, I don't remember ever passing in real life, maybe I have once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) If I transferred and partner super accepted I'd bid game, ergo I transfer. Does that mean that if I changed the hand so that it was just too weak to bid game opposite a superaccept, you would pass 1NT? Personally I always transfer on these hands, because if it's too weak to contemplate game, it's also too weak to want to play 1NT. It also saves having to think. Edit: I see that my question has already been asked and answered. Edited March 8, 2010 by gnasher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pooltuna Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 What's your preference here? Qxx 10xxxx Ax J8x Partner opens 1NT It just feels like the game type is terribly significant here. At MP a strong argument can be made for pass but at IMPs possibly missing a ♥ game could be a substantial loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Transfer? If he superaccepts, I will bid game, otherwise we play 2H. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
